Michael Keane (Irish: Mícheál Ó Catháin), also known as Saint Michael, was a 27-year old member of the Irish Mob. He was often called stupid by Packie McReary and the others, and was often accused of being inbred. He often worked with McReary and Gordon Sargent, specializing in robberies and hijackings. At first Michael, like Gordon Sargent, is unsure of Niko; But after helping them steal the Ancelotti's money, he soon takes a liking to Niko and backs him up when Gerald McReary doesn't want Niko to take part in the Bank Heist.

Keane accompanied McReary, Sargent and Niko Bellic to an Ancelotti waste management plant at Colony Island, shooting their way in and successfully stealing the Ancelottis' payment. Keane and Sargent provided covering fire as McReary and Bellic made their escape.

Soon after, Keane took part in a bank robbery at the Bank of Liberty in Chinatown, Algonquin, along with Packie, Derrick and Niko; but one of the hostages named Eugene Reaper, shot and killed him with a concealed gun, much to the distress of Packie who, along with Derrick, avenged Keane's death by immediately killing Reaper. After the three surviving members had escaped in a car, Packie admits that he feels bad about his behavior towards Michael, and wishes he had been nicer to him.

It is thought Keane was named after GTA IV's character artist Michael Kane.
